JOHN REED,
Chairman.
The following preamble and resolution,
offered by Supervisor Mclaughlin, were
adopted:
WHEREAS a large number Of people are
being seriously injured almost daily oil over
our state, and rs such parties are generally
without means to defray medical or surgi.
cal treatment, or to pay for board and at
tendance, AMI their own homes not being
suitable places fer the proper care and
treatment of such cases;
And whereas this State already provides
place for the proper care and treatment
of such INDECENT persons as may have their
eyes or ears Injured
And whereas such institution has proved
to he of almost incalculable benefit, espe-
cially to those poor persons who have had
their eyes seriously injured;
And whereas no such institution exists
in this State for the care of such people
who meet with serious injuries, or who are
sick with some serious disease, and are un-
able to have themselves properly treated at
their own homes, and cannot pay for their
proper care and treatment at some private
hospital; therefore be II
ResolUed That this Board of Supervisors
request our present Legislators TO make such
provisions as they in their judgment may
deem best for the proper care and treat
ment of all such INDECENT persons; and
that the county clerk be instructed to mail
a copy of said resolution to the proper par
ties at Springfield, to be presented to our
honorable senators and representatives now
ia session for their earnest consideration.
The chairman, Mr. f. G. Lewis, here adj
dressed the Board on u question OF privi
lege.
On motion of Supervisor Fischer, the
Board adjourned till 8 o'clock tomorrow

anything in the whole movement,
while other organizations had some
success to record; for instance,
the bakers, brewers, coopers,
bricklayers, etc. In the stock
yards where the knights had
gained the eight hours in spite of
Powderly's wisdom, they were
compelled a few months after to
go on strike again, when Powderly
with an ostentatious display Of
despotism ordered the men to
work again under the conditions
laid down by their taskmasters
Every child in Chicago knows
that the strike was WON by the
men when Powderly's decree,
which delivered them over body
and soul, arrived here. Powderly's
fiat denial of this fact ought to
open the eyes of every thinking
workingman!
But Powderly not satisfied with
such an arbitrary and injurious ac-
tions drags the temperance ques-
ton in the order against the will
of the majority. So must the hu-
initiating exposure and aban don
ment of the order to an ecelesias-
tical ring be very repulsive to a
great number of members.
But as the son of a foreigner,
his last action, his declaration
against the Foreigners is worse
than foolish, it is an act of low
baseness. One-third of all the
members are foreigners and an
other third are the sons of foreign
ers. His frantic enmity to So
cialism' is very natural. SOCIAL
ism has no use for $1,000 man.
The principles of the order are
Socialistic and the Socialists have
always been the best agitators in
the order. The Socialists gave
the order vitality and eminence.
To mention another thing, his
enmity toward the great number
of the best labor papers in the
country, which he boycotted, will
show that he is more the friend of
the greedy monopolists than that
of the working classes.
We could mention dozens of
reasons for the decline of the Or
der.
Every thinking workman must
come to the conclusion that it
looks as if the creature was paid
$1,000 per year to ruin the order.
His cry, education" is a little too
threadbare. Charity begins at
home, Mr.. Powderly.
1t is true, the order needs edu-
cation and reform, and the mere
removal of Powderly would be OF
no value unless the undemocratic
principles, with which he and his
clique have disgraced the order,
are also removed.
If in Minneapolis these undemo-
cratic principles with their father
Mr.. Powderly, are removed, the
order will take a very successful
start again and fulfill its noble
mission; if not, good by, order."
The capitalists have no reason
to rejoice over its decline, how
ever, for the element lost to the
Knights of Labor will gather in
other and more radical orga MIA.

their partners, keeping almost
perfect time with the music
Six months ago isolated, not
comprehending the meaning of
society or the tender influence of
female company, they have now
become acquainted with all the
young ladies of the neighborhood,
with sufficient knowledge of man
ners and etiquette to enjoy their
company. They have been taught
the principles of cooperation and
fraternity and can converse intel
ligently upon social questions.
They often cooperate with the
smaller clubs and arrange picnics
in some suburban park where
Sunday is spent in healthful exer-
else and recreation with abund-
ance of fresh air. The six months
of feminine influence and asso-
citation with their fellows under
the general direction of Mr.. Colt
has not only refined the manners
and elevated the thoughts of the
young men, who before were
coarse, selfish and awkward, but has
materially changed the expression
of their faces, perceptibly altering
many features.
Those who think that culture,
refinement, society and the higher
pleasures can only be enjoyed by
the so-called better classes and
that the under strata of society is
capable of enjoying only the
coarser pleasures would realize
their mistake were they to see the
results of the work Mr.. Colt. His
experiment proves, as we Social
lists have always known, that we
are the result of our environments;
that all are germs of the same
form of life in different stages of
development; that if there is a
difference in degree of intelli-
gence, physical health, beauty and
capability in the different classes
it is not on account of the differ
ent inward natures but it is due to
the different outward surround
ings.
1t also suggests the true tenn
perance reform. These young
men who now enjoy themselves
more some place else have no
more time to loaf around saloons.
Men will not crave beer and whis-
key if they have access to the
natural stimulants, pleasant sur
roundings, music and female So
ciety. Let our temperance re-
formers work striving to make it
possible for all to have these
things and the saloon will disap-
pear of itself.
After organizing the youth and
children of the neighborhood and
thus bringing the families into
closer and more friendly relations,
Mr.. Colt intends to organize the
homes comparatively, to establish
a large cooking department for
the neighborhood and large din
ing room to each house. This will
free the housewife from her pres
ent cares and drudgery and prac-
tically illustrate the principle of
cooperation. He is doing his
best to arouse discomfort and dis
satisfaction with the present con-
dition of affairs and is succeeding
splendidly. When the people
realize what it is possible for them
to enjoy, when once they get a
taste of the sweets of life and
realize from higher standpoint
their present condition it is not
likely that they will stop or or re-
treat. Then will be the harvest
for the Socialist missionary.

term. He has, in conversation
with more than one visitor, been pressed
to commit himself on this question, and
to every one has made the same answer,
viz: That he had not given any
thought to the matter Of denomination;
that it was as much as he could ind
time to think about to get through the
present four years, with benefit to the
country, satisfaction to the people who
elected him, and with credit to himself.
This is as much as he has ever said on
the general topic. In allusion to his
health, which he is quoted as making,
he declares he never made, and would
not make, as he has not such appre'
tensions as are attributed to him. He
is feeling very well, and bears the
burdens of office without serious dis
comfort. He has not even the satisfac'
ton Of knowing who has taken his fu'
ture in charge so generally now. From
other sources. the evidence points strong
to Senator Vest, who gave out the in
formation. Vest is believed to have
made his statements in good faith, mis-
interpreting ONE particulars of q recent
interview with the President. Senator
Vest, when questioned about the mat
ter this afternoon, declined to affirm Oh
deny the authorship of the published
interview. When pressed for his pri
vate opinion, he said he believed the
President is not actively pushing hi
canvass, but that he would be willing
to serve another term if the Democratic
party insisted on his doing SO.
